The taste of these was a definite 5-star! I really enjoyed the flaky pastry and the raspberry/pecan combination (I could not taste the lime). But, the instructions were a little problematic for me. The dough was too firm to work with after being refrigerated for 4 hours. Also, greasing the cookie sheets didn't prevent the cookies from sticking; I ended up with a nasty mess on my baking sheets. I checked a cookbook by Nick Malgieri whose ruglach dough recipe is identical, but his procedures were a little different: He suggests refrigerating the dough only as long as it takes to prepare the filling which would have made it easier to work with; and he suggests lining the baking sheets with parchment paper. I will try this yummy recipe again using Malgieri's methods which should solve my problems. :)
